I was on leave in the Navy and wanted to visit a shipmate that lived in Decatur, Alabama. I had an envelope with his address on it and was on my way there.
As a young kid, I was driving, not really paying attention to much but all of a sudden I see an exit for Decatur. I take it and think to myself... "wow.. that was a lot faster than I thought"...so I pull over to ask directions... (pre-cell...)
I show the guy behind the gas station counter the envelope and he is like, "what is this "AL" stand for?"
I am thinking, "man, what a dummy.." That is Alabama...
"You're in Georgia..."
Yea, my Decatur story...
Young, not a care in the world, on liberty.. and not a clue.. heh
Yes, I made it to Alabama eventually :P
